Okay, honestly, why are mpreg fics even a thing? Like, this fact seriously pisses me off so much. If you want one pregnant just fucking turn them into a woman, that’s what you’re trying for anyway.
Like, honestly, mpregs are not only extremely uncomfortable and biologically impossible, but it’s also more of an attempt at heteronormativity than anything.
I mean, first, you’re making one of them pregnant. And usually, from the ones I’ve seen, the one that gets pregnant isn’t put in character at all. I mean, for most mpreg fics I’ve seen, none of them are in character, but especially the one that gets pregnant.
The one that get pregnant, from what I’ve seen, has a much more traditionally feminine personality. As if to fit. Heteronormativity at its finest.
You’re trying to make them have a biological child together with no one else. Two cis men cannot do that physically and there are reasons.
Cis men don’t have the proper parts to birth a child. They do not go through periods, which means you have eggs inside you which is what MAKES the baby. Yet, somehow, your cis male character got his cis male boyfriend pregnant.
It also completely disregards any other form of having a child for cis gay men? Surrogates, adoption.
And okay, maybe you want to make them go through pregnancy angst. Fun! Then genderbend them so they’re both cis girls and have one get a sperm donor. There.
Like, seriously, mpregs are just so unnecessary and angering. Just, why? Why?
I usually dont respond to such things and I dont like mpreg stuff anymore either but ….
Just.
The writers arent hurting anybody by writing that so just let them enjoy it and if you dont like it, then dont look at it.
“If you don’t like it, then don’t look at it.”
Honestly, I wish I could. I wish I could make fanfic authors tagging their stories properly so I won’t waste my time reading the probably most offensive, misogynistic/sexist and homophobic/transphobic fiction genre ever.
Velellas are close cousins of jellyfish, feeding on fish eggs, larvae or small shellfish. They hunt using stinging tentacles and that pull their prey into the central cavity. They are a colony of polyps located underneath a vessel. (Source)
Tea drinkers read this!!!
If you buy pre-made herbal tea blends (usually have names like Bedtime, Calm, etc) check the ingredients. I just saw a Nighttime blend that had St. Johns Wort in it, which can be dangerous when mixed with some medications. Talk to you doctor what herbs you should avoid. (Especially when you want to ingest st. Johns wort or mugwort)
A simple hint to remember is just because its in a food store, doesn’t mean its safe.
St. John’s Wort shouldn’t be taken with antidepressants as well as many anti-anxiety meds (such as Xanax)! For a full list see below:
signal boost for safety
Source link isn’t working for me, so here’s an alternative link (scroll down to interactions).
St. John’s Wort also interacts with birth control.
Also look out for anything that contains kava kava (or just kava), an herb that induces relaxation, because it can negatively interact with a whole shitton of medications, such as Xanax, Klonopin, Ativan, Ambien, Levodopa, Flexeril, Valium, Prilosec, progesterone, Celebrex, Glucotrol, ibuprofen, Coumadin, codeine, Prozac, acetaminophen, Allegra, Imodium, Diflucan, and a LOT more.
Basically if you take anything whatsoever be careful about consuming kava kava.
As folks are mentioning in the reblogs, St. John’s Wort can also impact your contraception (birth control), so be real careful with that. Look out for Valerian, too.
If we’re not missing our mark here, teas containing these ingredients have a “talk to your doctor” warning on them, and many herbal remedies have something resembling a Drug Facts table in back. That’s always a good sign to run the ingredients through a checker like the one at Drugs.com.
where do TV shows get this idea that high school is constant drama, nothing even fucking happened to me in high school
I’m now remembering that my school got a slurpee machine and then had to get rid of it two weeks later after someone poured toxic chemicals into it that they stole from the science lab in an attempt to poison the entire cheerleading squad so like, maybe I was just boring
Not every day you find out youre a background character

The Glasswinged butterfly is a beautiful brush-footed butterfly. The Glasswinged butterfly gets its name because the tissue between the veins of its wings looks like glass, as it lacks the colored scales found in other butterflies. (Source)

To the worried person in the comments:
No, a hummingbird’s heart will not stop if it stops moving. You’re possibly thinking of Spoink, which is a Pokemon that supposedly powers its heart by bouncing, and as such can’t stop moving. Hummingbirds don’t sit often because they’re busy looking for food, but they can and do sit. The females sit on eggs in nests, after all, and they do have to sleep.
